If Emperor Wu had to be honest, Jun Linyuan was the son he was the most proud of.
At that thought, Emperor Wu asked Jun Linyuan, “Can you treat him?”
Jun Linyuan said, “I can try.”
Emperor Wu suddenly said, “If you can cure the crown prince, I’ll let him marry you!”
What?
Before Jun Linyuan could say anything, Feng Wu was stunned.
Marriage?
Between her and Jun Linyuan?!
She had no intention to do that at all!
“That’s wonderful news! They’ll be a lovely couple!” Master Chu laughed.
Feng Wu rolled her eyes. No, there would be no couple whatsoever.
Before she could protest, the empress dowager said impatiently, “We don’t have time for this! Get on with the treatment already!”
Feng Wu said, “That’s right.”
The empress dowager patted Feng Wu and was pleased that her “grandson” was with her.
Jun Linyuan glanced at Feng Wu with a meaningful look in his eyes.
“How do you treat that poison?” the empress dowager asked Jun Linyuan.
Jun Linyuan said directly, “Your Majesty, please don’t worry. I’ll cure her.”
After that, he took Feng Wu’s hand and tried to lead her away.
“You disrespectful girl!” The empress dowager was furious, and she complained to Emperor Wu, “I intervened in her marriage, and she’s giving me attitude now! I’ll never let Junjun marry her!”
Feng Wu and Jun Linyuan could still hear the empress dowager’s angry complaint as they walked away.
Feng Wu didn’t say anything.
Jun Linyuan looked unhappy when they returned to his place.
But Feng Wu failed to notice it.
Not only that, she also said happily, “Can you tell me now why you wanted me to pretend that I’m sick? My body is the one that was poisoned. Did you expose yourself on purpose so that people could come to kill you?”
She shrugged. “To be honest with you, I can’t master your spiritual essence yet, and I’m terrible at exerting it. I can’t do any stances, nor can I carry your Sky Destroyer…”
She couldn’t stop complaining.
She felt like a three-year-old in front of an open vault. Although it was filled with treasure, she couldn’t carry any away with her.
She didn’t realize how unhappy Jun Linyuan was and was lost in her imagination. “You let out the news deliberately. Aren’t you worried that people from the Dongsang Kingdom will try to kill you?
“Everyone knows that you’re like the Chosen One and will unify the continent one day. If you really become the emperor, how desperate would the Dongsang Kingdom feel?
“Therefore, compared with killing your father, they would rather assassinate you. With you dead, the Junwu Empire won’t have a future.
“If I were from the Dongsang Kingdom, I’d try my best to kill you!
“Now that I’m in your body, I want to hide from as many people as possible, but you’re trying to tell people that you’re weak… Do you have a death wish?”
The crown prince glanced at Feng Wu and snorted.
That made Feng Wu angry.
